This will be the fourth extension of the project. The first one was approved for six months on December 23, 2011; the second for four months on June 27, 2012; and the third for two months on October 31, 2012. No legal clearance is required for this restructuring. A request to extend the project closing date by the Implementing Agency (IGAD) is not required. The need to extend the project closing date was occasioned by delay to process the additional financing, or AF in a timely manner.
